Wow! Didn't see that coming tbh. Thought he was spending some time away from the game concentrating on business/family stuff, but if he's staying in Perth then maybe best of both worlds?

Pav being in the same studio as Gerard "neighhhhhhhh" Wheatley & Mark "slobbo" Robinson, would make interesting viewing.

Come on Pav say what you really think !!!.

Slobbo - " Hey Pav are you upset you wreck your reputation by playing in a team on the down "

Pav - " Mark, how many schooners have you had this afternoon ? "

Staunch effort to enter a knob jockey workplace.
Will be comfortably the best.

Good to see Pav's got himself an office job.

I was a bit worried about his last job.

Actually those gold bars he's holding are worth about $600k each. (Fyfe's salary?)

 

[theGav56]

He has been the gold standard as a player, and if he wants to commentate I think he can become a commentating ingot too.

 

[BStaff17]

Thought he would have gone to 7 instead thought he had a contract with them during his playing days.

Anyway it will be good to see an ex freo player in the media. Though i dont think pav will be one eyed like some other muppets that commentate

 

[mightymouse75]

He will make a great commentator. Good to see a Docker in the broadcasting box

 

[Kenny_01]

One of the main benefits we will get is we will finally get to see some great Freo games next off season when Pav is one of the guest programmers. The last month on Fox Footy has been a joke with literally no decent Freo content.

Fast Eddie chose the 1990 and 2010 grandfinals to be played for 24hrs.

 

[Eski3]

Great news! Will substantially lift the average IQ of the fox footy team. I hope he's a gameday commentator and not some special analyst that pops up on AFL 360 for 4 minutes once a week or something.

 

[Purple dynamite]

Surely he's taking that d-head dermot's spot.

I know someone who fast eddie owes money to.

 

[jerms]

Yes please.

 

[armpit]

Good for fox. Pav is a good get. As a viewer and listener and as someone who values realness of persona, I'm pleased.

 

[armpit]

Surely he's taking that d-head dermot's spot.

That would be a huge comparison and contrast. Pav/ derm. Real/ fake.

 

[scon]

I know someone who fast eddie owes money to.

Owes a few apologies too.
That club deserves him.

money for jam get paid 400k a year to watch footy. I doubt he will be doing the "footy is my life" type approach of say, Jonathan Brown and more like watch the WA teams games and put in the special comments.

Footballers who claim to have business interests generally means property development - which isn't exactly easy in this market. Waiting a couple of years is probably a good idea.

 

[DanWA]

Personally think Pav will make a good commentator. Good on him.

Mmmmmmmmmmm, Pav is no Banfield.

 

[Steinfreo]

Have you heard Pav sell Kia's!? Hes gonna be that nice blend of sincerity, intelligence and friendly wormth. Thanks Kia.

2 years of commentating then its back at the coal face Pav.

 

[eastfreo75]

At least one commentator not bagging the dockers. Hopefully, Belly can the side lines.

bit nervous about this. not that many/any of the usual commentary mob are even likeable, but Pav isn't the most charismatic of speakers.

Glad you said it, Pav is a great man but he can send you to sleep also.

But at least what he says will be based on something factual or his experiences and not just made up, he has more integrity than most commentators could even dream of.

Imagine Barlow commentating. Now that would be entertaining
